The reason I am happy is that I just got my first Cadillac. Yes I know that sounds kinad sad that I am all excited and giddy like a school girl over a used rebuilt wreck cadillac but I have always wanted a caddy and finally found one that I could afford that is also in decent condition.
I was originally going to get a 88 crown vic for 600$ that this guy had in his yard to replace my car that slid on the ice and to its death. On my way to his place with the cash I saw the caddy sitting on the front line of the local buy here pay here place in town. It said $1000 and you can take it home on the windshield. This just called to me to stop so I pulled in checked the car over inside and out and drove it and basically did everything except tear it apart and rebuild it. I was looking for a reason to talk myself out of it but couldnt so down the 600 tax return went and the rest I'll have to pay a bit on but still a grand for a caddy that is in good condition is a nice job in my opinion.
Its a 1992 Cadillac sedan deville. Light Blue exterior and dark blue interior. Some slight body damage but barely noticeable. As well as a couple minor interior glitches which I shold have fixed before the end of next week.
I know some people get kinda snobby about rebuilt wrecks and used cars in general (One of my exfriends especially) but if you know what you're doing and willing to accept less than perfect you can get some really really good deals on some nice rides. And whats really funny is that I had gotten my tax return the day before they placed this caddy out on the lot, I choose the particular time of day to drive past the dealership as they had just put it out there. Almost like the universe was offering this to me. I love it when thigns go right for a change.
Sorry for bragging a bit about this but I am just sooo happy about this. It rides like a caddy should and feels sooo good. When I went looking to replace the redneck racer I didnt think I be able to jump so far up the ladder to one of the top ones.
